1、My son was badly hurt in a fire. After he  36  from a series of treatments, the doctors told him they would not do any operation for six months  37  it took long for the skin to stop shrinking(收缩). So, he had to return to college with a visible 10-inch  38  on his face.

I said to my son, “Keaton, 39 will pay any more attention to your scar  40  you do. If it does not bother you, it will not bother 41.” He took my advice to heart and returned to school with his head 42 high ― glad he was alive.

43 , everyone has scars and shortcomings. Some of you may spend much time thinking that people would like you better, 44 you looked different, or dressed differently, or could have a different and newer 45 .

But you see, like Keaton’s scar, people will only judge you by your looks, or your  46 , or your car, if you are judging yourself by these same false  47 .

One of my friends in college was very 48 . At first, when people met him, they noticed his  49  for about 10 seconds. This man felt  50  about himself and spent most of his time  51  about other people’s comfort and welfare.  52 , people ignored his looks. What people 53 was his kindness and his concern for them. He didn’t act in an ugly way so people didn’t treat him as an ugly man.

Therefore, concentrate on what you value 54 yourself, because if you can see that beautiful person, everyone you are in contact with will see the same  55 .
